PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. (Company) was incorporated as a
Maryland corporation on October 31, 1995. The Company owns all of the stock
of Calvin B. Taylor Banking Company of Berlin, Maryland (Bank). The Bank
is a commercial bank incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on
December 17, 1907, with a main office located in Berlin, Maryland.

The Company's holding company structure can assist the Bank in maintaining
its required capital ratios because the Company may, subject to compliance with
debt guidelines implemented by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (Board of Governors or Federal Reserve), borrow money and contribute
the proceeds to the Bank as primary capital. The holding company structure
also permits greater flexibility in issuing stock for cash, property,or
services and in reorganization transactions. Moreover, subject to certain
regulatory limitations, a holding company can purchase shares of its own stock,
which the Bank may not do without regulatory approval. A holding company may
also engage in certain non-banking activities which the Board of Governors has
deemed to be closely related to banking and proper incidents to the business of
a bank holding company. These activities include making or servicing loans and
certain types of leases; performing certain data processing services; acting as
a fiduciary or investment or financial advisor; acting as a management
consultant for other depository institutions; providing courier, appraisal, and
consumer financial counseling services; providing tax planning and preparation
services; providing check guaranty and collection agency services; engaging in
limited real estate investment activities; underwriting, brokering, and selling
credit life and disability insurance; engaging in certain other limited
insurance activities; providing discount brokerage services; underwriting and
dealing in certain government obligations and money market instruments and
providing portfolio investment advice; acting as a futures commission merchant
with respect to certain financial instrument transactions; providing foreign
exchange advisory and transactional services; making investments in certain
corporations for projects designed primarily to promote community welfare; and
owning and operating certain healthy savings and loan associations. Although
the Company has no present intention of engaging in any of these services, if
circumstances should lead the Company's management to believe that there is a
need for these services in the Bank's marketing areas and that such activities
could be profitably conducted, the management of the Company would have the
flexibility of commencing these activities upon filing notice thereof with the
Board of Governors.

Location and Service Area

The Company, through the Bank, is engaged in a general commercial and
retail banking business serving individuals, small- to medium-sized businesses,
professional organizations, and governmental units. The Bank operates from
nine branches located throughout Worcester County, Maryland and one branch
located in Sussex County, Delaware. The Bank draws most of its customer
deposits and conducts most of its lending transactions within the communities
in which these branches are located.

Much of the Bank's service area is located along the shores of the Atlantic
Ocean and has grown as both a resort and a retirement community in recent years.
The principal components of the economy are tourism and agriculture. Berlin
has a strong component of health-care related businesses. The tourist
businesses of Ocean City, Maryland and Bethany, Delaware and the health-care
facilities in Berlin, Maryland (including Berlin Nursing Home and Atlantic
General Hospital) are among the largest employers in the counties.

Banking Services

The Bank offers a full range of deposit services including checking, NOW,
Money Market, and savings accounts, and time deposits including certificates
of deposit. The transaction accounts and time certificates are tailored to
the Bank's principal market areas at rates competitive to those offered in the
area. In addition, the Bank offers certain retirement account services, such
as Individual Retirements Accounts. All deposits are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to the maximum amount allowed by law
(generally, $100,000 per depositor subject to aggregation rules). The Bank
solicits these accounts from individuals, businesses, associations and
organizations, and governmental authorities.

The Bank also offers a full range of short? to medium-term commercial and
personal loans. Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for
working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion
(including acquisition of real estate and improvements), and purchase of
equipment and machinery. Consumer loans include secured and unsecured loans
for financing automobiles, home improvements, education, and personal
investments. The Bank originates commercial and residential mortgage loans and
real estate construction and acquisition loans. These lending activities are
subject to a variety of lending limits imposed by state and federal law. The
Bank may not make any loans to any director or officer (except for commercial
loans to directors who are not officers or employees) unless the Board of
Directors of the Bank approves the loans. The Board of Directors reviews
such loans every six months.

Other bank services include cash management services, 24-hour ATM's, debit
cards, safe deposit boxes, travelers' checks, direct deposit of payroll and
social security checks, and automatic drafts for various accounts. The Bank
offers bank-by-phone and Internet banking services, including electronic bill-
payment, to both commercial and retail customers. The Bank provides discount
brokerage services through a correspondent bank.

Competition

The Company and the Bank face strong competition in all areas of opera-
tions. The competition comes from entities operating in Worcester County,
Maryland and Sussex County, Delaware and neighboring counties and includes
branches of some of the largest banks in Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia.
Its most direct competition for deposits historically has come from other
commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, and credit
unions operating in its service areas. The Bank also competes for deposits with
money market mutual funds and corporate and government securities. The Bank
competes for loans with the same banking entities, as well as mortgage banking
companies and other institutional lenders. The competition for loans varies
from time to time depending on certain factors. These factors include, among
others, the general availability of lendable funds and credit, general and local
economic conditions, current interest rate levels, conditions in the mortgage
market, and other factors which are not readily predictable.

The Bank employs traditional marketing media including local newspapers
and radio, to attract new customers. Bank officers, directors, and employees
are active in numerous community organizations and participate in community-
based events. These activities and referrals of satisfied customers result in
new business.

Employees

As of December 31, 2004, the Bank employed 93 full-time equivalent
employees. The Company's operations are conducted through the Bank.
Consequently, the Company does not have separate employees. None of the
employees of the Bank are represented by any collective bargaining unit.
The Bank considers its relations with its employees to be good.


SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Company and the Bank are subject to state and federal banking laws
and regulations which impose specific requirements or restrictions on, and
provide for general regulatory oversight with respect to, virtually all aspects
of operations. These laws and regulations are generally intended to protect
depositors, not shareholders. The following is a brief summary of certain
statutes, rules, and regulations affecting the Company and the Bank. To the
extent that the following summary describes statutory or regulatory provisions,
it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statutory and
regulatory provisions.

Beginning with the enactment of the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) and following with the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA), numerous
additional regulatory requirements have been placed on the banking industry,
and additional changes have been proposed. Legislative changes and the
policies of various regulatory authorities may affect the operations of the
Company and the Bank and those effects may be material. The Company is unable
to predict the nature or the extent of the effect on its business and earnings
that fiscal or monetary policies, economic controls, or new federal or state
legislation may have in the future.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act

In November 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was signed into law. Among
other things, the Act repeals the restriction, contained in the Glass-Steagall
Act, on banks affiliating with securities firms. The Act permits bank holding
companies to engage in a statutorily provided list of financial activities,
including insurance and securities underwriting and agency activities, merchant
banking, and insurance company portfolio investment activities. The Act also
authorizes activities that are "complementary" to financial activities. The
Act is intended to grant certain powers to community banks that larger
institutions have accumulated on an ad hoc basis. The Act may have the result
of increasing competition that the Company and the Bank face from larger
institutions and other types of companies. In fact, it is not possible to
predict the full effect that the Act will have on the Company and the Bank.

The Company

The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the federal
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (BHCA). Under the BHCA, the Company is
subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve and is required to file
periodic reports of its operations and such additional information as the
Federal Reserve may require. The Company's and the Bank's activities are
limited to banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or
performing services for its Subsidiary, or engaging in any other activity that
the Federal Reserve determines to be so closely related to banking or managing
and controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

Investments, Control, and Activities. With certain limited exceptions,
the BHCA requires a bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the
Federal Reserve before (i) acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank,
(ii) acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of
any bank if after such acquisition it would own or control more than 5% of the
voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of
such shares), or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding
company.

In addition, and subject to certain exceptions, the BHCA and the Change
in Bank Control Act, together with regulations thereunder, require Federal
Reserve approval (or, depending on the circumstances, no notice of disapproval)
prior to any person or company acquiring "control" of a bank holding company,
such as the Company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an
individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities
of the bank holding company. Because the Company's Common Stock is registered
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, under Federal Reserve regulations,
control will be rebuttably presumed to exist if a person acquires at least 10%
of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities of the Company.
The regulations provide a procedure for challenge of the rebuttable control
presumption.

Under the BHCA, the Company is generally prohibited from engaging in, or
acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting shares of
any company engaged in non-banking activities, unless the Federal Reserve, by
order or regulation, has found those activities to be so closely related to
banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

Source of Strength; Cross-Guarantee. Under Federal Reserve policy, the
Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the Bank and
to commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances in which the Company
might not otherwise do so. Federal Reserve may require a bank holding company
to terminate an activity or relinquish control of a nonbank subsidiary if
Federal Reserve determines that such activity or control poses serious risk to
the financial soundness or stability of a subsidiary bank. Further, federal
bank regulatory authorities have discretion to require a bank holding company
to divest itself of any bank or nonbank subsidiary if the agency determines
that divestiture may aid the depository institution's financial condition. The
Bank may be required to indemnify, or cross-guarantee, the FDIC against losses
it incurs with respect to any other bank controlled by the Company, which in
effect makes the Company's equity investments in healthy bank subsidiaries
available to the FDIC to assist any failing or failed bank subsidiary of the
Company.

Securities Exchange Act of 1934

The Company's common stock is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the Act). The Company is, therefore, subject to periodic and ad hoc
information reporting, proxy solicitation rules, restrictions on insider
trading, and other requirements of the Act.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) of 2002 imposed additional disclosure
requirements in the Company's reports filed with SEC. SOX defines new
standards of independence for insiders, provides guidance for certain Board
committees including the composition of those committees, and establishes
corporate governance requirements.

The Bank

General. The Bank operates as a state nonmember banking association
incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland. It is subject to
examination by the FDIC and the state department of banking regulation for
each state in which it has a branch. The States and FDIC regulate or monitor
all areas of the Bank's operations, including security devices and procedures,
adequacy of capitalization and loss reserves, loans, investments, borrowings,
deposits, mergers, issuances of securities, payment of dividends, interest
rates payable on deposits, interest rates or fees chargeable on loans,
establishment of branches, corporate reorganizations, maintenance of books and
records, and adequacy of staff training to carry on safe lending and deposit
gathering practices. The FDIC requires the Bank to maintain certain capital
ratios and imposes limitations on the Bank's aggregate investment in real
estate, bank premises, and furniture and fixtures. The Bank is required by
the FDIC to prepare quarterly reports on the Bank's financial condition.

Under provisions of the FDICIA, all insured institutions must undergo
periodic on-site examination by the appropriate banking agency. The cost of
examinations of insured
depository institutions and any affiliates may be assessed by the agency
against each institution or affiliate, as it deems necessary or appropriate.
Insured institutions are required to submit annual reports to the FDIC and the
appropriate agency (and state supervisor when applicable). FDICIA also directs
the FDIC to develop with other appropriate agencies a method for insured
depository institutions to provide supplemental disclosure of the estimated
fair market value of assets and liabilities, to the extent feasible and
practicable, in any balance sheet, financial statement, report of condition,
or other report of any insured depository institution. FDICIA also requires
the federal banking regulatory agencies to prescribe, by regulation, standards
for all insured depository institutions and depository institution holding
companies relating, among other things, to: (i) internal controls, information
systems, and audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting;
(iv) interest rate risk exposure; and (v) asset quality.

Transactions With Affiliates and Insiders. The Bank is subject to
Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, which places limits on the amount of
loans or extensions of credit to, or investment in, or certain other
transactions with, affiliates and on the amount of advances to third parties
collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates. The aggregate
of all covered transactions is limited in amount, as to any one affiliate, to
10% of the Bank's capital and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to
20% of the Bank's capital and surplus. In addition, each covered transaction
must meet specific collateral requirements. The Bank is also subject to
Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibits an
institution from engaging in certain transactions with certain affiliates unless
the transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable
to such institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies. The Bank is subject to
certain restrictions on extensions of credit to executive officers, directors,
certain principal shareholders, and their related interests. Such extensions
of credit (i) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest
rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with third parties, and (ii) must not involve more than the
normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires that
the Bank shall be evaluated by its primary federal regulator with respect to
its record in meeting the credit needs of its local community, including low
and moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound operation.
These factors are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions, and
applications to open a branch or facility. The Bank received a satisfactory
rating in its most recent evaluation.

USA Patriot Act. In response to the terrorist attacks on September 11,
2001, Congress passed the Patriot Act. The Patriot Act requires that Banks
prepare and retain additional records designed to assist the government in an
effort to combat terrorism. The Act includes anti-money laundering and
financial transparency provisions, and guidelines for verifying customer
identification during account opening. The Act promotes cooperation between
law enforcement, financial institutions, and financial regulators in identifying
persons involved in illegal acts such as money laundering and terrorism.

Other Regulations. Interest and certain other charges collected or
contracted for by the Bank are subject to state and federal laws concerning
interest rates. The Bank's loan operations are also subject to certain federal
laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the federal Truth-In-Lending
Act governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers, the Home
Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975 requiring financial institutions to provide
information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a
financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing
needs of the community it serves, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting
discrimination on the basis of race, creed, or other prohibited bases in
extending credit, the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978 governing the use and
provision of information to credit reporting agencies, the Fair Debt
Collection Act governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by
collection agencies, and the rules and regulations of the various federal
agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing such federal laws.
The deposit operations of the Bank are also subject to the Right to Financial
Privacy Act which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of customers'
financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative
subpoenas of financial records, and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act as
implemented by the Federal Reserve Board's Regulation E which governs automatic
deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and customers' rights and
liabilities arising from the use of automated teller machines and other
electronic banking services.

Deposit Insurance

The FDIC establishes rates for the payment of premiums by federally
insured banks and thrifts for deposit insurance. Separate insurance funds
are maintained for commercial banks (BIF) and thrifts (SAIF), with insurance
premiums from the industry used to offset losses from insurance payouts when
banks and thrifts fail. Since 1993, insured depository institutions like the
Bank have paid for deposit insurance under a risk-based premium system. With
BIF at its legally mandated reserve ratio, FDIC has set the premiums for well-
capitalized banks at a level of $.00 per $100 of insured deposits. The BIF
insurance assessment rate for the first semiannual assessment period of 2005
is proposed to remain at $.00 to $.27 per $100 in deposits. In addition to
the amount paid for deposit insurance, banks are assessed an additional amount
to service the interest on the bond obligations of the Financial Corporation
(FICO). Any increase in deposit insurance premiums for the Bank will increase
the Bank's cost of funds, and there can be no assurance that such costs can be
passed on to the Bank's customers.

Dividends

The principal source of the Company's cash revenues comes from dividends
received from the Bank. The amount of dividends that may be paid by the Bank
to the Company depends on the Bank's earnings and capital position and is
limited by federal and state laws, regulations, and policies. The Federal
Reserve has stated that bank holding companies should refrain from or limit
dividend increases or reduce or eliminate dividends under circumstances in
which the bank holding company fails to meet minimum capital requirements or
in which earnings are impaired.

The Company's ability to pay any cash dividends to its shareholders in
the future will depend primarily on the Bank's ability to pay dividends to
the Company. In order to pay dividends to the Company, the Bank must comply
with the requirements of all applicable laws and regulations. Under Maryland
law, the Bank must pay a cash dividend only from the following, after providing
for due or accrued expenses, losses, interest, and taxes: (i) its undivided
profits, or (ii) with the prior approval of the Department of Financial
Regulation, its surplus in excess of 100% of its required capital stock. Under
FDICIA, the Bank may not pay a dividend if, after paying the dividend, the Bank
would be undercapitalized. See "Capital Regulations" below. See Item 5 for a
discussion of dividends paid by the Bank in the past three years.


In addition to the availability of funds from the Bank, the future
dividend policy of the Company is subject to the discretion of the Board of
Directors and will depend upon a number of factors, including future earnings,
financial condition, cash needs, and general business conditions. The amount
of dividends that might be declared in the future presently cannot be estimated
and it cannot be known whether such dividends would continue for future periods.

Capital Regulations

The federal bank regulatory authorities have adopted risk-based capital
guidelines for banks and bank holding companies that are designed to make
regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profile
among banks and bank holding companies, account for off-balance sheet exposure,
and minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. The resulting capital
ratios represent qualifying capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted
assets and off-balance sheet items. The guidelines are minimums, and the
regulators have noted that banks and bank holding companies contemplating
significant expansion programs should not allow expansion to diminish their
capital ratios and should maintain ratios well in excess of the minimums.

Current guidelines require bank holding companies and federally regulated
banks to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-based assets equal
to 8%, of which at least 4% must be Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital includes
common shareholders' equity before the unrealized gains and losses on
securities available for sale, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and
minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, but
excludes goodwill and most other intangibles, and excludes the allowance for
loan and lease losses. Tier 2 capital includes the excess of any preferred
stock not included in Tier 1 capital, mandatory convertible securities, hybrid
capital instruments, subordinated debt and intermediate term-preferred stock,
and general reserves for loan and lease losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted
assets. Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 plus Tier 2 capital.

Under the guidelines, banks' and bank holding companies' assets are
given risk-weights of 0%, 20%, 50%, and 100%. In addition, certain off-
balance sheet items are given credit conversion factors to convert them to
asset equivalent amounts to which an appropriate risk-weight will apply.
These computations result in the total risk-weighted assets.

The federal bank regulatory authorities have also implemented a leverage
ratio, which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total assets less
intangibles, to be used as a supplement to the risk-based guidelines. The
principal objective of the leverage ratio is to place a constraint on the
maximum degree to which a bank holding company may leverage its equity capital
base. The minimum required leverage ratio for top-rated institutions is 3%,
but most institutions are required to maintain an additional cushion of at
least 100 to 200 basis points.

FDICIA established a new capital-based regulatory scheme designed to
promote early intervention for troubled banks and requires the FDIC to choose
the least expensive resolution of bank failures. The new capital-based
regulatory framework contains five categories for compliance with regulatory
capital requirements, including "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized,"
"undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically
undercapitalized." To qualify as a "well capitalized" institution, a bank
must have a leverage ratio of no less than 5%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of no
less than 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of no less than 10%, and the
bank must not be under any order or directive from the appropriate regulatory
agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level. As of December 31, 2004,
the Company and the Bank were qualified as "well capitalized." For further
discussions, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation - Capital."

Recent Legislative Developments

Periodically, the federal and state legislatures consider bills with
respect to the regulation of financial institutions. Some of these proposals
could significantly change the regulation of banks and the financial services
industry. The Company cannot predict if such proposals will be adopted or the
affect to the Company.


Item 2. Properties

The Company has ten branch locations, all of which are owned by the
Company or the Bank. The Bank leases the land on which the East Berlin
branch is located. The locations are described as follows:

The Berlin office is the centralized location for the Company and the
Bank; that is to say that all proof and bookkeeping is performed there. Each
branch has a manager that also serves as its loan officer, with exception of
the East Berlin office, which does not have a loan officer. All offices
participate in normal day-to-day banking operations. The Company operates
automated teller machines in all branches except the East Berlin office, and
at one non-branch location in a local hospital.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or
the Bank or any of their properties are subject.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There were no matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the
Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year for which this report is
filed.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize it to
issue up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock.

As of February 28, 2005 there were approximately 997 holders of record of
the common stock and 3,207,584 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
There is no established public trading market in the stock, and there is no
likelihood that a trading market will develop in the near future. Transactions
in the common stock are infrequent and are negotiated privately between the
persons involved in those transactions.

All outstanding shares of common stock of the Company are entitled to
share equally in dividends from funds legally available, when, as, and if
declared by the Board of Directors. The Company paid dividends of $.65 per
share in 2004, $.60 per share in 2003,and $1.00 per share in 2002. Included
are special cash dividends of $.60 per share in 2002, which are not expected
to be an annual event.

Totals 3,080 $ 36.00 3,080 N/A

The Company publicly announced on August 14, 2003, that it would
repurchase up to 10% of its outstanding equity stock at that time, which
equated to a total of 324,000 common shares available for repurchase. There
was no expiration date for this program. No other stock repurchase plan or
program existed simultaneously, nor had any other plan or program expired
during the period covered by this table. Common shares repurchased under
this plan are retired.

As of January 1, 2005, this plan has been renewed, by public announcement,
making up to 10% of the Company's outstanding equity stock at that time, which
equates to a total of 320,848 common shares, available for repurchase in 2005.
Common shares repurchased under this plan are retired.


Item 6. Selected Financial Data

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of the Company's financial condition and results
of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial
statements and related notes and other statistical information included in this
report.

Overview

Consolidated income of the Company is derived primarily from operations of
the Bank. The 2004 net income was $5,613,187 compared to $5,540,214 for 2003,
and $5,753,916 for 2002. The Company had a return on average equity of 8.64%
and return on average assets of 1.42% for 2004, compared to returns on average
equity of 8.97% and 9.83%, and returns on average assets of 1.45% and 1.65%,
for 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Results of Operations

The Company's net income of $5,613,187, or $1.74 per share, for the year
ended December 31, 2004, was an increase of $72,973 or 1.32%, from the net
income of $5,540,214, or $1.71 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Factors contributing to this increase included a $50,572 increase in net
interest income and a lower effective income tax rate that results from tax-
favored revenue becoming a higher percentage of total revenue. Increases in
noninterest revenues and noninterest expenses offset each other. Noninterest
revenue increased $185,961 (11.89%) in 2004 compared to 2003, while noninterest
expense increased $186,810 (2.82%) during the same period.

The Company's net income of $5,540,214, or $1.71 per share, for the year
ended December 31, 2003, was a decrease of $213,702, or 3.71%, from the net
income of $5,753,916, or $1.78 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Noninterest income decreased by 9.62% during 2003 compared to 2002, while
noninterest expense increased by 1.87% during the same period. Included in
noninterest income for 2002 is a $267,844 gain on the sale of an unimproved
property in Ocean View, Delaware, which contributed $164,403 net of tax, to 2002
net income. Without that gain, noninterest income would have increased from
2002 to 2003 by 6.93%.

The Company's net income of $1,451,346 or $.45 per share, for the quarter
ended December 31, 2004, was an increase of $142,802, or 10.91%, from the net
income of $1,308,544 or $.40 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2003.
Increased net interest income was the primary reason for the increase. As the
Bank's time deposits continued to reprice downward, reflecting rate reductions
from the previous year, the Bank enjoyed a widening interest spread. At the
same time, the Bank has seen a shift in interest-bearing deposits from higher
rate time deposits to relatively lower rate NOW and Money Market accounts.

The Company's net income of $1,308,544 or $.40 per share, for the quarter
ended December 31, 2003, was a decrease of $133,285, or 9.25%, from the net
income of $1,441,829, or $.45 per share, for the quarter ended December 31,
2002. Eliminating the fourth quarter 2002 net gain of $164,403 on the Ocean
View property, net income would have increased $31,118 or 2.15%.


Net Interest Income

The primary source of income for the Company is net interest income, which
is the difference between revenue on interest-earning assets, such as investment
securities and loans, and interest incurred on interest-bearing sources of
funds, such as deposits and borrowings. The level of net interest income is
determined primarily by the average balance of interest-earning assets and
funding sources and the various rate spreads between the interest-earning assets
and the Company's funding sources. Changes in net interest income from period
to period result from increases or decreases in the volume of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and increases or decreases in the
average rates earned and paid on such assets and liabilities. The volume of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities is affected by the
ability to manage the earning-asset portfolio, which includes loans, and the
availability of particular sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing
deposits.

The key performance measure for net interest income is the "net margin on
interest-earning assets," or net interest income divided by average interest-
earning assets. The Company's net interest margin for 2004 on a non-GAAP tax-
equivalent basis, was 3.88%, compared to 3.96% and 4.32% for 2003 and 2002,
respectively. Because most of the Bank's loans are written with a demand
feature, the income of the Bank should not change dramatically as interest
rates change. Management of the Company expects to maintain the net margin on
interest-earning assets. The net margin may decline, however, if competition
increases, loan demand decreases, or the cost of funds rises faster than the
return on loans and securities. Although such expectations are based on
management's judgment, actual results will depend on a number of factors that
cannot be predicted with certainty, and fulfillment of management's
expectations cannot be assured.

Composition of Loan Portfolio

Because loans are expected to produce higher yields than investment
securities and other interest-earning assets (assuming that loan losses are not
excessive), the absolute volume of loans and the volume as a percentage of
total earning assets is an important determinant of net interest margin.
Average loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, were $161,481,136,
$165,194,000,and $165,293,144 during 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively, which
constituted 44.66%, 46.90%, and 50.75% of average interest-earning assets for
the periods. The Company's loan to deposit ratio was 50.51%, 51.03%, and
53.67% at December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. Average loans to
average deposits were 49.90%, 52.55%, and 58.01% for 2004, 2003, and 2002,
respectively. The decrease in the loan to deposit ratio over the periods
presented is primarily attributable to continued increases in deposits with
little change in loan volume.

The Company extends loans primarily to customers located in and near
Worcester County, Maryland and Sussex County, Delaware. There are no industry
concentrations in the Company's loan portfolio. The Company does, however,
have a substantial portion of its loans in real estate and performance will be
influenced by the real estate market in the region.

The following table sets forth the composition of the Company's loan
portfolio as of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

As of December 31, 2004, $159,791,735 or 97.62%, of the total loans
were either variable rate loans or loans written on demand.

The Company has the following commitments, lines of credit, and
letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002,
respectively.

Total $ 30,105,827 $ 28,489,589 $ 24,160,208


Loan commitments are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is
no violation of any condition to the contract. Loan commitments may have
interest fixed at current rates, fixed expiration dates, and may require the
payment of a fee. Letters of credit are commitments issued to guarantee the
performance of a customer to a third party. Loan commitments and letters of
credit are made on the same terms, including collateral, as outstanding loans.
The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
borrower is represented by the contract amount of the commitment.

Loan Quality

The allowance for loan losses represents an allowance for probable losses
in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is
evaluated periodically based on a review of all significant loans, with a
particular emphasis on non-accruing, past due, and other loans that management
believes require attention. The determination of the allowance rests upon
management's judgment about factors affecting loan quality and assumptions
about the economy. Management considers the year-end allowance appropriate
and adequate to cover probable losses in the loan portfolio; however,
management's judgment is based upon a number of assumptions about future
events, which are believed to be reasonable, but which may or may not prove
valid. Thus, there can be no assurance that charge-offs in future periods
will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additional increases in
the loan loss allowance will not be required. The Company has a history of
low loan charge-offs.

For significant problem loans, management's review consists of evaluation
of the financial strengths of the borrowers and guarantors, the related
collateral, and the effects of economic conditions. The overall evaluation
of the adequacy of the total allowance for loan losses is based on an analysis
of historical loan loss ratios, loan charge-offs, delinquency trends, and
previous collection experience, along with an assessment of the effects of
external economic conditions. It is the Company's policy to evaluate loan
portfolio risk for the purpose of establishing an adequate allowance. The
allowance may be increased for reserves for specific loans identified as
substandard during management's loan review. Generally, the Company will not
require a negative provision to reduce the allowance as a result of either
net recoveries or a decrease in loans.

The provision for loan losses is a charge to earnings in the current
period to replenish the allowance and maintain it at a level management has
determined to be adequate. As of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, the
allowance for loan losses was 1.33% of outstanding loans.

No provision for loan losses was made in 2004 or 2003 due to low levels
of delinquencies. The provision for loan losses was $25,000 in 2002.

As a result of management's ongoing review of the loan portfolio, loans
are classified as nonaccrual when it is not reasonable to expect collection of
interest under the original terms. These loans are classified as nonaccrual
even though the presence of collateral or the borrower's financial strength may
be sufficient to provide for ultimate repayment. Interest on nonaccrual loans
is recognized only when received. A delinquent loan is generally placed in
nonaccrual status when it becomes 90 days or more past due. When a loan is
placed in nonaccrual status, all interest that has been accrued on the loan
but remains unpaid is reversed and deducted from earnings as a reduction of
reported interest income. No additional interest is accrued on the loan
balance until the collection of both principal and interest becomes reasonably
certain. The Company had no nonperforming loans at December 31, 2004 and 2003.
The Company had one loan with a balance of $2,222 on which the accrual of
interest had been discontinued as of December 31, 2002.

When real estate acquired by foreclosure and held for sale is included
with nonperforming loans, the result comprises nonperforming assets. There
were no nonperforming assets at December 31, 2004, 2003, or 2002. Loans are
classified as impaired when the collection of contractual obligations,
including principal and interest, is doubtful. Management has identified no
significant impaired loans as of December 31, 2004, 2003, or 2002.


Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

The primary objective of asset/liability management is to ensure the
steady growth of the Company's primary source of earnings, net interest income.
Net interest income can fluctuate with significant interest rate movements.
To lessen the impact of these margin swings, the balance sheet should be
structured so that repricing opportunities exist for both assets and
liabilities in roughly equivalent amounts at approximately the same time
intervals. Imbalances in these repricing opportunities at any point in time
constitute interest rate sensitivity.

Liquidity represents the ability to provide steady sources of funds for
loan commitments and investment activities, as well as to provide sufficient
funds to cover deposit withdrawals and payment of debt and operating
obligations. These funds can be obtained by converting assets to cash or by
attracting new deposits. Average liquid assets (cash and amounts due from
banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, and
investment securities) were 67.94% of average deposits for 2004, compared to
65.57% and 61.71% for 2003 and 2002, respectively.

As of December 31, 2004, $72,905,414, or 45.94% of the Company's investment
debt securities mature in one year or less. Funds invested in federal funds
sold provide liquidity so the Bank does not need a large portfolio of securities
classified as "available-for-sale." Other sources of liquidity include letters
of credit, overnight federal funds, and reverse repurchase agreements available
from correspondent banks. The total lines and letters of credit available from
correspondent banks were $19,000,000 as of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002.

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the responsiveness of interest-bearing
assets and liabilities to changes in market interest rates. The rate-sensitive
position, or gap, is the difference in the volume of rate-sensitive assets and
liabilities at a given time interval. The general objective of gap management
is to actively manage rate-sensitive assets and liabilities to reduce the impact
of interest rate fluctuations on the net interest margin. Management generally
attempts to maintain a balance between rate-sensitive assets and liabilities as
the exposure period is lengthened to minimize the overall interest rate risk to
the Company.

Interest rate sensitivity may be controlled on either side of the balance
sheet. On the asset side, management exercises some control over maturities.
Also, loans are written to provide repricing opportunities on fixed rate notes.
The Company's investment portfolio, including federal funds sold, provides the
most flexible and fastest control over rate sensitivity since it can generally
be restructured more quickly than the loan portfolio.

On the liability side, deposit products are structured to offer incentives
to attain the maturity distribution desired. Competitive factors sometimes
make control over deposits more difficult and, therefore, less effective as an
interest rate sensitivity management tool.

The asset mix of the balance sheet is continually evaluated in terms of
several variables: yield, credit quality, appropriate funding sources, and
liquidity. Management of the liability mix of the balance sheet focuses on
expanding the various funding sources.

As of December 31, 2004, the Company was asset-sensitive for all time
horizons. For asset-sensitive institutions, if interest rates should decrease,
the net interest margins should decline. Conversely, if interest rates should
increase, the net interest margins should increase. Since all interest rates
and yields do not adjust at the same velocity, the gap is only a general
indicator of rate sensitivity.

Deposits and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $2,507,550, or 1.03%, to
$245,279,167 in 2004, from $242,771,617 in 2003. Average interest-bearing
deposits increased $1,640,081, or .69%, to $240,087,443 in 2004 from
$238,447,362 in 2003, while average noninterest-bearing demand deposits
increased $7,600,593, or 10.01% to $83,499,032 in 2004 from $75,898,439 in
2003. At December 31, 2004, total deposits were $319,772,358, compared to
$317,946,053 at December 31, 2003, an increase of .57%. These rates of increase
have slowed significantly from the rates at which deposits have grown since
mid-2001. Management attributes the growth of deposits in recent years to
investors' discomfort with a depressed and volatile stock market, and a
resultant flight to the safety of insured deposits.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $17,588,168, or 7.81%, to
$242,771,617 in 2003, from $225,183,449 in 2002. Average interest-bearing
deposits increased $18,425,292, or 8.37%, to $238,447,362 in 2003, from
$220,022,070 in 2002, while average noninterest-bearing demand deposits
increased $10,982,926, or 16.92% to $75,898,439 in 2003, from $64,915,513 in
2002. At December 31, 2003, total deposits were $317,946,053, compared to
$301,495,466 at December 31, 2002, an increase of 5.46%.


The following table sets forth the deposits of the Company by category as
of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Core deposits, which exclude certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more,
provide a relatively stable funding source for the Company's loan portfolio
and other earning assets. The Company's core deposits increased $3,239,811,
$12,254,910 and $32,246,116 during 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.
Management believes that this increase is largely attributable to a migration
of funds from the stock market into insured deposits. Deposits, and
particularly core deposits, have been the Company's primary source of funding
and have enabled the Company to meet both its short-term and long-term
liquidity needs. Management anticipates that such deposits will continue to
be the Company's primary source of funding in the future.

The maturity distribution of the Company's time deposits over $100,000
at December 31, 2004, is shown in the following table.


Maturities of Certificates of Deposit
and Other Time Deposits of $100,000 or More

Certificates of deposit

Large certificate of deposit customers tend to be extremely sensitive to
interest rate levels, making these deposits less reliable sources of funding for
liquidity planning purposes than core deposits. Some financial institutions
partially fund their balance sheets using large certificates of deposit obtained
through brokers. These brokered deposits are generally expensive and are
unreliable as long-term funding sources. Accordingly, the Company does not
accept brokered deposits.


Noninterest Revenue

Noninterest revenue for 2004 increased $185,961, or 11.89% from the
previous year. Included is a $160,771 increase in cash surrender value of bank
owned life insurance policies with a face value of $4,000,000, which were
purchased by the Bank in August 2003. A second significant increase occurred
in ATM and debit card revenues, which are up $46,742 (16.94%) from 2003 due to
increased usage.

Noninterest revenue for 2003 decreased $166,470, or 9.62% from the
previous year. This includes a decrease of $267,844 related to a 2002 gain
on the sale of property in Ocean View, Delaware. Service charges on deposit
accounts increased $35,004 primarily due to increased deposit balances.
Miscellaneous noninterest revenue increased $43,151, which includes a $54,035
increase in cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance policies.

The following table presents the principal components of noninterest
revenue for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $186,810, or 2.82%, from 2003 to 2004.
Increased personnel costs of $75,864 include a $50,132 increase in the cost
of group insurance. Occupancy expense increased due to increased depreciation
and real property taxes related to the Bank's Berlin office expansion completed
late in 2003. Cost related to ATM and debit cards rose $30,999 due to
increased usage. The revenues net of expenses related to ATM and debit card
usage, increased $15,743 from 2003 to 2004.

Noninterest expense increased $121,481, or 1.87%, from 2002 to 2003.
Increased personnel costs of $204,573 were due to annual raises, increased
401(k) expense, and increased cost of group insurance. Occupancy expense
increased due to increased depreciation related to recent building construction
and renovation, as well as increased maintenance costs incurred to improve and
maintain the grounds surrounding branches. Furniture and equipment expense
decreased $36,346 mainly due to decreases in service contract costs, and
improved classification of certain maintenance expenses. Of the $127,364
decrease in other operating expense, approximately $62,000 was directly
attributable to the Ocean View branch location, which previously operated as
Calvin B. Taylor Bank of Delaware, and its merger into the Calvin B. Taylor
Bank of Berlin, Maryland.

The following table presents the principal components of noninterest
expense for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Capital

Under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC,
the Company and the Bank are currently required to maintain a minimum risk-
based total capital ratio of 8%, with at least 4% being Tier 1 capital. Tier 1
capital consists of common shareholders' equity, qualifying perpetual
preferred stock, and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated
subsidiaries, less certain intangibles. In addition, the Company and the Bank
must maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total assets)
of at least 4%, but this minimum ratio is increased by 100 to 200 basis points
for other than the highest-rated institutions.

At December 31, 2004, the Company and the Bank exceeded the minimum
regulatory capital ratios, as set forth in the following table.

Website Access to SEC Reports

The Bank maintains an Internet website at www.taylorbank.com. The
Company's periodic SEC reports, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly
reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K, are accessible through
this website. Access to these filings is free of charge. The reports are
available as soon as practicable after they are filed electronically with the
SEC.


Accounting Rule Changes

The following recent accounting pronouncements would apply to the Company
if the Company or the Bank entered into an applicable activity.

FASB Statement No. 151, Inventory Costs - an Amendment of ARB No. 43,
Chapter 4, is a result of a broader effort by the FASB working with the
International Accounting Standards Board to improve comparability of cross-
border financial reporting.

FASB Statement No. 152, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing
Transactions, amends FASB Statement No. 66 Accounting for Sales of Real Estate
to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate
time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position 04-2,
Accounting for Real Estate Time Sharing Transactions. This Statement also
amends FASB Statement No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations
of Real Estate Projects, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental
operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply
to real estate time-sharing transactions.

FASB Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets an Amendment of AP
Opinion No. 29, eliminates the exception to fair value for exchanges of similar
productive assets that was provided in APB Opinion No. 29.

FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (Revised
2004) Share Based Payment, establishes standards for the accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or
services. The Statement eliminates the alternative to use the Accounting
Principles Board Opinion 25's intrinsic value method of accounting that was
provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. Under Opinion 25, issuing
stock options to employees generally result in recognition of no compensation
costs. This Statement requires entities to recognize the cost of employee
services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the
grant-date fair value of those awards. In addition, this Statement amends
FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows to require that excess tax
benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction
of taxes paid. This Statement is effective as of the first interim or annual
reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.

AICPA Statement of Position No. 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or
Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, prohibits the carrying over of
valuation allowances in loans and securities acquired in a transfer. At
transfer, the assets are to be recorded at the total cash flows expected to be
collected. The SOP is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2004.

The accounting policies adopted by management are consistent with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
are consistent with those followed by peer Banks.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Impact of Inflation

Unlike most industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial
institutions such as the Company and the Bank are primarily monetary in nature.
Therefore, interest rates have a more significant effect on the Company's
performance than do the effects of changes in the general rate of inflation and
change in prices. In addition, interest rates do not necessarily move in the
same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. As
discussed previously, management seeks to manage the relationships between
interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide
interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation. See
"Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity" above.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

In response to this Item, the information included on pages 1 through 21
of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31,
2004, is incorporated herein by reference.


PART III

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosures

There have been no changes in or disagreements with accountants on
accounting or financial disclosure during the fiscal year covered by this
report.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Within the ninety days prior to the date of this report, the Company's
management performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and its internal
controls and procedures for financial reporting. Disclosure Controls are
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
in the Company's publicly filed reports is reported in a timely manner. As
part of these controls, Management reviews information gathered through systems
developed for that purpose to determine the nature of required disclosure.

Internal controls are procedures designed to provide management with
reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, and that transactions are
properly authorized, executed, and recorded to permit the preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Because of inherent limitations in any internal controls, errors
or irregularities may occur and not be detected. The projection of an
evaluation of controls to future periods is subject to the risk that procedures
may become inadequate due to changes in conditions including the degree of
compliance with procedures.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Treasurer of the Company have
concluded, based on the evaluation of disclosure controls and internal controls
that the financial information and disclosures included in periodic SEC filings
and the Company's financial statements are fairly presented in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. maintains a system of internal control
over financial reporting, which is designed to provide reasonable assurance to
the Company's management and board of directors regarding the preparation of
reliable published financial statements. The system includes an organizational
structure and division of responsibility, established policies and procedures
including a code of conduct to foster a strong ethical climate, and the careful
selection, training, and development of our staff. The system contains self-
monitoring mechanisms, and an internal auditor monitors the operation of the
internal control system and reports findings and recommendations to management
and the board of directors. Corrective actions are taken to address control
deficiencies and other opportunities for improving the system as they are
identified. The board, operating through its audit committee, which is composed
entirely of directors who are not officers or employees of the Company, provides
oversight to the financial reporting process.
There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal
controls, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or
overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system
can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement
preparation. Furthermore, the effectiveness of an internal control system may
vary over time and with circumstances.
The Company assessed its internal control system as of December 31, 2004
in relation to criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting
as described in "Internal Control - Integrated Framework," issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its
assessment, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2004, its system of
internal control over financial reporting met those criteria.

Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
Berlin, Maryland

We have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying
Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Calvin B.
Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary maintained effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established
in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting
and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial
reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's
assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating
management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed
to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of
the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management's assessment that Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares,
Inc. and Subsidiary maintained effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects,
based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
Also, in our opinion, Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal
Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America, the balance sheets
and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows of Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary, and our report dated
February 2, 2005, expressed an unqualified opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
Berlin, Maryland


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2004,
2003, and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income,
changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2004,
2003, and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America, the effectiveness
of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
and our report dated February 2, 2005, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. is a bank holding company. Its
subsidiary, Calvin B. Taylor Banking Company, is a financial institution
operating primarily in Worcester County, Maryland and Sussex County,
Delaware.
The accounting and reporting policies reflected in the
financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles
and to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
these estimates.

Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares,
Inc. include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, Calvin B. Taylor
Banking Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks and federal funds sold and interest-
bearing deposits except for time deposits. Federal funds are purchased and
sold for one-day periods.

Investment securities
As securities are purchased, management determines if the securities
should be classified as held to maturity or available for sale. Securities
which management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are recorded
at amortized cost which is cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts to maturity. Securities classified as available-for-
sale are recorded at fair value.
Gains and losses on disposal are determined using the specific-
identification method.

Loans and allowance for loan losses
Loans are stated at face value less the allowance for loan losses.
Interest on loans is credited to income based on the principal amounts
outstanding. The accrual of interest is discontinued when any portion of
the principal or interest is ninety days past due and collateral is
insufficient to discharge the debt in full.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level deemed appropriate
by management to provide adequately for known and inherent risks in the loan
portfolio. The minimum range of the allowance for loan losses is calculated
by applying risk-weighted percentages to loans based on their delinquency
and underlying collateral. The portion of the allowance that is a result of
geographic and industry concentrations and current economic conditions is not
allocated to specific loans. At December 31, 2004, the allowance included
approximately $1,040,028 that was not allocated to specific loans.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Loans and allowance for loan losses (continued)

If the current economy or real estate market were to suffer a severe
downturn, the estimate for uncollectible accounts would need to be increased.
Loans that are deemed to be uncollectible are charged off and deducted from
the allowance. The provision for loan losses and recoveries on loans
previously charged off are added to the allowance.
Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information,
management considers it unlikely that collection of principal and interest
payments will be made according to contractual terms. Generally, loans are
not reviewed for impairment until the accrual of interest has been discontinued.

Premises and equipment
Premises and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed under both straight-line and accelerated methods
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Computer software
The Company amortizes software costs over their useful lives using the
straight-line method.

Bank owned life insurance
The Company records increases in cash surrender value of bank owned
life insurance as current period income based on projections provided by the
underwriting company.

Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Income taxes
The provision for income taxes includes taxes payable for the current
year and deferred income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for the
temporary differences between financial and taxable income. Tax expense and
tax benefits are allocated to the banks and company based on their
proportional share of taxable income.

Per share data
Earnings per common share are determined by dividing net income by the
weighted average of shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average
of common shares outstanding was 3,219,116,3,235,767,and 3,240,000 shares
outstanding, for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002,
respectively.

2. Cash and Due From Banks

The Company normally carries balances with other banks that exceed the
federally insured limit. The average balances carried in excess of the
limit, including unsecured federal funds sold to the same banks, were
$42,076,235 for 2004,$53,869,724 for 2003,and $59,942,898 for 2002.
Banks are required to carry noninterest-bearing cash reserves at specified
percentages of deposit balances. The Company's normal amount of cash on hand
and on deposit with other banks is sufficient to satisfy the reserve
requirements.

3. Investment Securities (Continued)

The table below shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of
securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2004,
aggregated by length of time the individual securities have been in a
continous unrealized loss position.

U. S. Treasury $106,788,806 $ 591,710 $ 1,990,313 $ 11,110 $ 108,779,119 $ 602,820

The debt securities for which an unrealized loss is recorded are issues
of the United States Treasury, Federal Home Loan Bank(a U.S. government agency),
and general obligations of states and municipalities. These securitites are
classified as held-to maturity because the Company has the ability and the
intent to hold the securitites until they are called or mature at face value.
Fluctuatuions in fair value are reflective of market conditions, and not
indicative of an other than temporary impairment of the investment.
The equity security for which an unrealized loss is recorded was purchased
during 2004 as a long-term investment. This short-term value fluctuation
is not indicative of an other than temporary impairment of the investment.

The amortized cost and estimated market value of debt securities,
by contractual maturity and the amount of pledged securities, follow. Actual
maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have
the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment
penalties.

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are
summarized below. The fair values of a significant portion of these
financial instruments are estimates derived using present value techniques
prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and may not be
indicative of the net realizable or liquidation values. The calculation of
estimated fair values is based on market conditions at a specific point in
time and may not reflect current or future fair values.

Note payable 162,161 158,414 181,087 176,288 198,912 193,045


The fair value of federal funds sold, noninterest-bearing deposits, and
securities sold under agreements to repurchase equals their carrying value.

The fair value of silver coin included with cash is determined based
on quoted market prices.

The fair value of interest-bearing deposits with other financial
institutions is estimated based on quoted interest rates for
certificates of deposit with similar remaining terms.

The fair values of equity securities are determined using market
quotations. The fair values of debt securities are estimated using a
matrix that considers yield to maturity, credit quality, and
marketability.

The fair value of fixed-rate loans is estimated to be the present
value of scheduled payments discounted using interest rates currently
in effect for loans of the same class and term. The fair value of
variable-rate loans, including loans with a demand feature, is
estimated to equal the carrying amount. The valuation of loans is
adjusted for possible loan losses.

The fair value of interest-bearing checking, savings, and money
market deposit accounts is equal to the carrying amount. The fair
value of fixed-rate time deposits is estimated based on interest
rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of outstanding
loan commitments, unused lines, and letters of credit.

16. Capital Standards

The Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation have adopted risk-based capital standards for banking
organizations. These standards require ratios of capital to assets
for minimum capital adequacy and to be classified as well
capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions. The capital
ratios and minimum capital requirements of the Company are as
follows:


Minimum To be well
(in thousands) Actual capital adequacy capitalized
Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio

December 31, 2004
Total risk-based capital
(to risk weighted assets) $67,862 43.3% $12,526 8.0% $15,657 10.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to risk-weighted assets) $65,313 41.7% $ 6,263 4.0% $ 9,394 6.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to average fourth quarter
assets) $65,313 16.0% $16,307 4.0% $20,384 5.0%

December 31, 2003
Total risk-based capital
(to risk weighted assets) $65,082 39.1% $13,299 8.0% $16,624 10.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to risk-weighted assets) $62,488 37.6% $ 6,650 4.0% $ 9,974 6.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to average fourth quarter
assets) $62,488 16.0% $15,636 4.0% $19,545 5.0%

December 31, 2002
Total risk-based capital
(to risk weighted assets) $61,255 40.7% $12,032 8.0% $15,040 10.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to risk-weighted assets) $59,318 39.4% $ 6,016 4.0% $ 9,024 6.0%
Tier 1 capital
(to average fourth quarter
assets) $59,318 15.9% $14,902 4.0% $18,628 5.0%


Tier 1 capital consists of common stock, additional paid in
capital, and retained earnings. Total risk-based capital includes a
limited amount of the allowance for loan losses. In calculating
risk-weighted assets, specific risk percentages are applied to each
category of asset and off-balance sheet items.

Failure to meet the capital requirements could affect the
Company's ability to pay dividends and accept deposits, and may
significantly affect the operations of the Company.

In the most recent regulatory report, the Company was determined
to be well capitalized. Management has no plans that should change
the classification of the capital adequacy.
